Chapter 45: The Moon Ban on the Sand Sea

The aura of the Rolling Dust Mountain Range has been depleted, and the Spirit Fruit Spirit Tree has long been extinct.

However, there is a 'paper sword qi prohibition' left in the mountain, which can be used by monks to explore and hunt for treasures, and there are a large number of demon beasts entrenched, so it can attract monks to visit all year round.

These monks occupied the mountains to build cities, open up territories, and maintain order.

The location of the mountain castle is always built on the northern edge of the Dust Mountains, because there are big demons rampant in the belly of the mountain, and unless you enter the mountain to explore, the monks will not come, let alone stay permanently.

Shen Laohan just said: 'The monks of the dust have opened up mountain cities on the peaks at the end of the mountain', and only the peaks at the end of the mountain have monks' residences, and after going deep into the mountain for dozens of miles, there is absolutely no monk's cave mansion.

On the way to the mountain city, Shen Laohan introduced Ding Xing again: "Yexiu has the territory of Yexiu, we have our stronghold, although everyone comes to the Dust Mountain to explore, they will not cross the border with each other. ’

A group of indigenous monks live in the Dust Mountains, and they live together with the wild cultivators.

The seven major factions of Weiguo and the Xianzhuang under their jurisdiction have disciples traveling south all the year round, and the territory is adjacent to the Shougong Mountain and Lianfeng Valley in the Rolling Dust Mountain Range, and even every day there are disciples entering the mountain.

Shougong Mountain inherits the method of taming beasts, and Lianfeng Valley inherits the way of refining.

These two big sects, relying on the mountains and using the mountains, almost regard the Rolling Dust Mountain Range as their own private territory, if it weren't for the fact that the territory of this mountain range is too vast, they are understaffed and can't occupy it, they will not allow Ye Xiu to set up camp.

Because the two factions were very close to the Rolling Dust Mountain, their disciples came and went frequently, and later saw that other sects often had disciples passing by, so they simply established a stronghold on the mountain and provided them to each faction to settle down and use.

The route of Ding Xing and the three of them was carefully chosen, and after arriving at Rolling Dust Mountain, they had already looked for which mountain city they should settle in advance.

At this moment, the mountain city they rushed to was built by the monk Shougong Mountain.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, they looked up at the size of the city.

It is said to be a city, but it is actually a simple cave carved out along the mountain, which looks like a grotto, there are hundreds of them, and occasionally sword light enters and exits from the cave door.

Shabby, primitive, and without comfort, this is Ding Xing's initial impression of observing the mountain city.

But it is such a small city, but it can bring together the monks of the seven sects in one place, and there is no need to worry about being defeated by the wild cultivators.

Ding Xing was looking and suddenly saw a little boy walking down the mountain steps.

When he came to him, the boy first bent down and saluted, and then asked, "Where did the three distinguished guests come from?"

Ding Xing stood behind Shen Laohan and Granny Meng, he didn't have to be responsible for negotiations, he just had to listen and learn from the experience.

Shen Laohan replied: "We are from Luzhou! May I ask the little brother, are there any disciples of the Qiongtai faction in the city?"

The little boy turned around and pointed: "Naturally, there are a lot! In the past month, the Jinlu Xianzhuang that brewed wine for the Qiongtai faction has come to several waves of monks, uncle, are you from the upper sect, or are you under the jurisdiction of the Xianzhuang?"

This boy is only about ten years old, but he has a shrewd face, and his eyes are full of scrutiny.

If Ding Xing and the three are monks of the upper sect, he will show 'politeness' and 'respect', if it is a servant monk under his jurisdiction, then he will send it casually, and the cave in the mountain cannot let Ding Xing live in vain, and must charge a little fee as appropriate.

Old man Shen is an old Jianghu, and he smiled: "Little brother, you lead the way in front and arrange our cave house near Brother Jinlu." ”

"There is no problem in arranging the cave mansion, but each person needs to pay a spirit stone for a month! Uncle, this spirit stone is not for me, but for a Xuanfei senior who guards the palace mountain, he is responsible for guarding this mountain city, in case you provoke Ye Xiu during your exploration, go to the city to hide, it is absolutely safe!"

"Understand! One piece a month is a tribute, let's give you the spirit stone first!"

"Uncle, aunt, brother...... Oh, it's a little brother, please come with me, and I'll take you to the cave!"

Ding Xing and the three of them chuckled and went up the mountain with them.

On the way, Shen Laohan kept asking the little boy about the situation, and unexpectedly asked for some important information.

I only listened to the little boy's matter-of-fact preaching: "Since the old man is from Jinlu Xianzhuang, then you must be here for the mountain ants and the golden dew liquid, yes or no?"

Shen Laohan asked him rhetorically: "This matter was revealed to you by my Zhuang disciple, right?"

The little boy shook his head: "No, this news was first spread by Ye Xiu's 'Three Corpse Old Monsters'! In fact, since three years ago, everyone has been fooling around, saying that a winery under the jurisdiction of the Qiongtai faction was unlucky enough to lose a spiritual cellar, but it has not been confirmed. ”

The more the news spreads, the less likely it is that the Spirit Cellar and the Golden Dew will be recovered.

But Shen Laohan came to Juanchen Mountain this time, just to find his daughter, he didn't chat too much with the little boy, and asked: "Little brother, how many of my disciples with Zhuang went out, and how many people stayed in the cave mansion?"

The little boy happened to know: "All of them are out, and there is no one left!" Uncle, let me tell you the truth, they have all entered the 'Shahai Moon Ban', and no one can say when they will come back!"

Shen Laohan's heart sank, and he began to worry about his daughter again, and his tone was slightly eager: "Shahaiyue ban, where is this ban, what is so special about it, and it actually attracts all my Zhuang disciples to it?"

The little boy didn't respond, squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, holding a spirit stone in his hand, and threw it again and again.

Ding Xing saw his virtue in the back, and thought that this was a little money fan, so he threw him a spirit stone: "Hurry up!"

"Little brother, you are really bold! If you have a spirit stone, you will have an answer!" The little boy squeezed his eyebrows at Ding Xing before he said to Shen Laohan:

"Since the three corpse old monsters poked this matter open, almost all the monks in the Dust Mountain Range were alarmed, and after deduction and analysis, everyone finally delineated six places where the mountain ants might hide, and the other five places have been rummaged, but there is no trace of the mountain ants, and the last place is the 'Sand Sea Moon Ban', which everyone is currently looking for. ”

Even if it is a ground snake, it is not easy to search for an ant demon in the mountains.

Speaking of this, the little boy poked the three of them with his finger: "You have come in time, if it is a few days later, the mountain ants will be caught! ”

"Moonlight?" Ding Xing and the three of them were all confused: "Why is this?"

They had a general understanding of the situation in the Rolling Dust Mountain Range, but they didn't know much about the various sword qi prohibitions in the mountains.

The little boy enjoyed this kind of style of pointing at others, and replied with his nostrils facing the sky: "This forbidden, in fact, is called the sword ban of the sand sea, because when the moonlight is shining, the ban is strong and abnormal, not to mention you, even the predecessors of the Xuanfetal period can't break it, but when the moonlight fades, for example, tonight, the ban will be loosened, and you can easily enter, so there is the name of the moon ban! I watch the sky at night, tomorrow is a sunny day, you can't enter if you want to!"

Ding Xing listened, and once again remembered the 'paper soldiers under the moon', which was also powerful at moonrise, and he felt that the little boy was not lying.

But he would rather the Lingjiao be found by outsiders, and he would never rush into the ban.

As for Shen Laohan and Granny Meng, it is estimated that they will leave overnight.
